don't download covers and lyrics for streaming radio

[gaiastar]

Hi

I like often listen internet radio , like radioparadise o soma radio and others

I use  MusicBee 3.3.7367 on windows 10 and 7

could be added an option to avoid to download covers and lyrics when i listen streaming radios/podcast  and other internet sreaming source?

just because have lots of covers from artist and other stuff that i don't like or i don't have on my computer

would be really a great feature

thanks

+1 as a wishlist item for the ability to exclude streams from the choice to autodownload covers and lyrics as long as it can still be selected when desired.

@gaiastar: you can flush the downloaded lyrics as needed with the batch file from this post: https://getmusicbee.com/forum/index.php?topic=29365.msg163645#msg163645 .  For artwork use Tools/Advanced/Reset Artwork Cache.

Unticking those options doesnt stop artwork being downloaded for ripping or auto-tagging. They only apply to pictures downloaded when a track is playing

I don't mean to intrude, but what she is saying is that she wants to keep the option to auto-download lyrics and artwork for her normal music files checked, yet not have that also be downloading lyrics/art for radio streams when she is listening to those.  If I'm wrong, gaiastar please correct me.
